“Look,” Kevin said. He pointed up the great dark face of the back of the lodge… “There’s our room.” Just then, though, the boys flinched. Several small, barely seen shapes seemed to flutter past their faces. “What was—” “—that?” Kevin finished. A faint chittery sound squeaked above them, rapid and whispery. Then the shapes fluttered past a second time. “Are those… birds?” Jimmy asked. “No,” Kevin finally realized. “They’re bats!” “Run!” Jimmy shouted. And they ran, alright. They ran as fast as they could… But before they could make it completely out of the darkness, and with the circles of bats still squeaking above their heads— A tall, dark figure quickly stepped out in front of them, blocking their way… --- When Kevin and his family visit his Aunt Carolyn, unusual things begin to happen, some of them downright creepy.

Join Kevin, his family, and creepy Aunt Carolyn as the secret in the basement is finally revealed!
